Run Every Day February - who’s with me?

I got off to a bit of a slow start in January so have decided to embark on RED February instead (the shorter month makes me feel better about it!)

The plan is to run everyday but no pressure on speed or distance and some days it may well be a quick dash around the block as long as I get out there.

Having survived dry January (apart from one teensy glass of wine in the middle so maybe damp January) I have decided I will also give up sweets, chocolate, cake, ice-cream etc. I will allow myself savoury rubbish like crisps etc as I don’t tend to eat a lot of them anyway but sweet things are my weakness and I’ve been succumbing all too often!

Oh well, it’s still only me! I have progressed though, I’ve just done my first run and goodness me I’m really not very fit at all! Strava cut out half way through so I’m not sure how far I went but it took about 30 mins, maybe too ambitious for my first one as I’m knackered now.

I’ve also managed not to eat any sugary treats today, only ten hours to go!

I would like to join! Was getting really into running before Christmas after doing couch to 5k, got to a point where I could comfortably run 3 x 5k each week, then did my back in and haven't run for the whole month of January!Today I ventured out for a measly 2.5k run and tomorrow plan to do the same.

Brilliant well done. I’ve just returned from my run as the thought of you having it over and done with was too much to bear so it spurred me on to get it done! I won’t deprive my son of his cycle later but I’ll walk instead. I planned on a leisurely ten minutes but was feeling ok so extended that to 18 minutes. According to Strava before it conked out yesterday I was exactly the same (slow) pace. I don’t care, I’m just happy to be out and moving
